Paqo--High Priest of the Q’ero Nation— transmission of Karpay
Nestled at an astonishing elevation of 18,000 feet, the Q’ero people have thrived for centuries in their remote villages. Once thought to have vanished into the mountain mists, they descended from their heights in the 1950s, unveiling their profound wisdom and prophecies to the world. These luminous beings are hailed as weavers of light, crafting manta cloths adorned with 5th-dimensional symbols that exude a radiant luminosity and living energy.The intricate patterns woven into their garments echo those of the ancient Inca, a testament to their lineage and heritage. A language with roots stretching over 20,000 years, their tongue is believed to have seeded the ancient languages of Hebrew and Sanskrit, anchoring the essence of our holy texts. Unadulterated by external influences, they stand as guardians of their ancestral teachings and codes, untouched by the currents of other cultures.As guardians of unbroken lineage, their ancient narratives suggest a kinship with the ancient Mayans, Hopi, Navajo, and Tibetans. A shared tapestry of language and rituals intertwines their spirits, offering us a glimpse of a shared spiritual ancestry that spans vast distances and times. In their presence, we touch the sacred thread that weaves humanity across civilizations, unifying us with the luminous wisdom that threads through time itself.
DESPACHO TO PACHAMAMA
The Despacho ceremony is a sacred communal ritual, a dance of unity consciousness where we join our energies to create a vibrant living mandala. Gathered from the embrace of our local environment, these elements become vessels for our prayers and intentions, ascending like tendrils of smoke to the Divine. With intention, we artfully arrange these offerings, weaving a tapestry that harmonizes the three realms of existence – the upper world (Hanan Pacha), the middle world (Kay Pacha), and the lower world (Uku Pacha).In this sacred act, the Divine Feminine and Masculine find equilibrium, an alchemical dance that births harmony. Through this ritual, we embark on a journey into the Incan Tradition, an initiation into the sacred dance of existence itself. As our collective energies intertwine, we partake in a timeless ceremony that transcends the boundaries of time and space, aligning us with the eternal rhythms of the universe.
AUGUST 2nd, Moray
With hearts aglow and spirits uplifted, we then set our course for Moray, a place akin to the womb of Mother Earth. Here, time waltzes to the rhythms of ages past, a dance choreographed by the ancestors who once tread these sacred grounds. Immersed in the high frequencies of Moray, we bask in an intentional embrace that transcends the veils between worlds. In this hallowed place, we commune with the legacy of ancient wisdom, rejuvenated by the echoes of a time long gone yet vibrantly alive in every whisper of the wind.
Within this sacred site, Maria will reveal two of the most profound forms of earth energy, which set the shape and size of the terraces, connecting it to other power places such as Stonehenge.

Today, our Paqo will lead a ceremony to bless us with an ancient transmission of energy, a rite of passage called Yachay Karpay.
A Karpay transmission is where a Paqo (Incan Priest) intercedes on our behalf by invoking the Elemental Beings to assist us in shifting from the human beings we are to the luminous beings we are becoming. By planting an intentional luminous seed that infuses itself into our DNA, this seed, once given and nurtured by us, grows in our energetic fields and assists in our transformation process. The Q’ero Karpay expedite this process exponentially. All who receive the gift of their transmissions are instantly initiated as Paqos of this ancient lineage, becoming ambassadors of the Earth.

The Paqo medicine is intentional. The transmissions you will receive from the medicine man, our Paqo, are akin to attunements of power; the process carries an incredible energetic intensity and requires your focused attention and clarity to maximize the results of each transmission. After the Karpay, you will be considered by them an ambassador, equipped with tools to use in your lives and to assist others on their own awakening journey.
Yachay allows us to release our identification with the various roles we play in life, which often bind us and prevent us from remembering who we truly are. It enables us to reach a state of inner peace and joy, regardless of external strife and turmoil. Yachay brings stillness and presence, facilitated by meditation. Its energy resides around the fifth, sixth, and seventh chakras, centering around the forehead between the eyebrows (the “Third Eye” area). Yachay is about living in the present. The lesson of Yachay is “All is Well.”
AUGUST 3rd, Ollantaytambo – Ayni
We begin our day early, receiving the Munay Karpay. While "love" is the closest English translation, Munay transcends it, embodying a consciousness of acceptance and appreciation for all creation. It represents universal and unconditional love.
Munay recognizes our diversity and acknowledges that despite our differences, we are all spiritual beings having a human experience. Its energy resides around the Heart chakra, bridging our Lower selves with our Higher Selves, serving as the center that unites us.
Practicing Munay involves focusing on the positive and releasing heavy energies like anger and resentment. Its lesson is profound: "We are One."

We journey through the Sacred Valley to the ancient town of Ollantaytambo, once known as a Lemurian Temple of Love and now revered as the Temple of the Sun. Here, we'll encounter a profound energy linked to six enormous pink stones mysteriously transported to this site.
Maria will elucidate the integration of earth energies into the seven sacred cities of Lemuria and draw parallels between these sites and others in North America.

Our journey carries on after lunch to a nearby village, a place where our hearts unite cultures and spans distances. Here, we carry gifts of love, blessings, and offerings from deep within our souls. The native children welcome us warmly, their smiles as bright as sunflowers.
In this sacred exchange, we are not mere visitors but bearers of our essence. We share love and care, nurturing connections that transcend borders. Immersed in this enchanting encounter, we witness the law of Ayni unfold—a law that celebrates the beauty of giving and receiving in harmony. Through the eyes and spirits of these children, we realize the wealth of sharing, enriching our lives beyond measure.
Ayni, the Andean concept of reciprocity, forms the bedrock of relationships among the Andean people and their connection to Nature, seeing themselves as integral parts of it.

In Ayni you don’t give or receive something without reciprocity. So as we come to offer our talents, treasure and time, we will leave with unlimited blessings. Each year our groups offers something unique and special to the children and Natives of a remote village and on this day you will have an opportunity to touch someone’s heart in a way you never thought would be possible. Many consider this experience the highlight of their trip.
After returning to our hotel, we will have free time to enjoy our retreat facilities. You may choose a special Andean SPA treatment or have time alone to meditate and connect with the powerful mountains that surround our retreat center.
AUGUST 4th, Sacred Valley – Pisac
Early morning we leave our hotel to travel to Pisac, the Falcon Temple. The Pisac Archaeological SiteIt has Inca remains as important as Machu Picchu as the Temple of the Sun. At the Pisac Archaeological Site, science, agriculture and ceremonies were developed, all these activities intertwined with the reality of everyday life.
Pisac held great significance and purpose in Inca society. As one of the largest and most elaborate Inca ruins in the region, the Pisac site were a symbol of the Inca Empire's power and grandeur. They served as a religious center and were used for ceremonial purposes, such as the worship of the sun and moon.

Today the village of Pisac is known by its Indian Market, today we will have an opportunity to explore its amazing handcraft, an explosion of colors, beauty and creativity.

Today, our Paqo will offer us our final Karpay. When Yachay and Munay are in proper balance and relationship, they manifest the third Inca law of Llankay. Llankay can be roughly translated as "work" or "service" towards all living creations and the universe (cosmos, "source", Creator, etc). It is a state of consciousness where each individual's soul purpose, or path in life, is in service to their fellow human being as well as the cosmos. Everything that we "do" is ultimately in service to the Divine.
Llankay is an understanding that we are all part of a bigger picture and that each part is inherently dependent on the other. Every thought, word, and deed affects everyone and everything in this experience of life, emphasizing the importance of living with integrity and without fear. Llankay allows us to express our creativity through our work and symbolizes the power of the physical body, or our animal selves. Its energy resides in the physical body below the ribcage to the groin and coincides with the first three chakras. With Llankay, we realize that we are not alone. The lesson of Llankay is "We are all Connected."

AUGUST 5th, Sacred Valley – Machu Picchu
As dawn breaks, we embark on a train journey to Machu Picchu. Through the windows, the Urubamba Valley unfurls its mesmerizing landscape, whispering secrets of ancient times. This journey is a sacred prelude to our encounter with the legendary Sacred Crystal City, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Upon arriving in Aguas Calientes village, we settle into our lodgings, feeling the hum of anticipation. A local bus awaits to transport us up the mountainside. In just half an hour, we step onto hallowed ground, and before us stands a long-held dream realized—Machu Picchu, a realm of awe and wonder.
In this moment, we stand on the threshold of our cherished aspiration, where history and yearning converge. The mist-clad ruins and ancient pathways embrace our souls, and as we traverse its paths, we become both traveler and timeless witness. As the sun bathes the stones in golden light, we become part of the living story etched into these sacred stones, transforming dreams into reality.
Machu Picchu served as a university where knowledgeable women practiced daily spirituality. Before entering, we will seek permission from Machu Picchu’s spiritual guides to enter its sacred walls. After a sunset meditation at Intihuatana, the highest point of Machu Picchu, we take the last bus down to the village for a lovely dinner together. Sweet dreams!
